I don't know which will actually work (or were intended for) any
of the PDP-11 series. I've used both the QVSS and QDSS on MicroVAX
systems.
At university I used a framestore of some kind that hung off a
PDP-11/23's Q-bus. The PDP lived in an H9xx cab of some sort and the
framestore stood next to it and was about the same size. Not sure
it would count as a "graphics system" in the modern sense, and anyway
I cannot for the life of me remember the make.

Often there were interfaces abailable for other minis too. Does anyone have a comprehensive list of graphics
products (UNIBUS
or Q-BUS) for the PDP-11 family of minicomputers?
I'm not aware of such a list, I believe there are only about 3-6
"video cards". I've a 3rd party card that was used in a Cameca
